Maybe an illness or an injury got you off track or you took a break from the gym that lasted a little too long. Getting moving again can be challenging, but it&#8217;s certainly doable &#8212; and worthwhile.<\/p>\n<p>Make exercise a priority again. Schedule it into your week like an appointment &#8212; one that you can&#8217;t cancel. You&#8217;ll soon redevelop this healthy lifestyle habit.<\/p>\n<p>A tip from the American Heart Association is to set yourself up for success by finding an exercise buddy who won&#8217;t let you skip your workouts.
